...most of us are not saying that at all....read between the lines sugar...

...and as for the weekend warrior...Ill bite my tounge...ILL send you a CV... and then you can fwd your apology to my e-mail address

There have been many valids points here.....the bottom line...drugs(of all kinds)alcohol and flying do not mix......most normal thinking people whether they be pilots or not,dont find that hard to accept or understand...reading the article,and hopefully the report is correct...they found THC in his body.....

I get drug tested(blood,urine,breath) about 3-4 times a year,random,before and after a flight....never tested positive....Ive made cockups,but never attributed it to substance abuse......cant understand that even if pot smoking never caused thiis accident,profesional pilots are held to a much higher standard than most.... smoking dope and flying is a bad combination
